IMHO, it is sufficient that aptitude forbids the selected version and all the *previous* versions. Said otherwise, aptitude should do a > test on the versions, instead of a != test. It is very unlikely that users want to forbid version X only and still allow to upgrade or downgrade automatically to a *previous* version. -- Vincent Lefèvre <vinc...@vinc17.net> - Web: <https://www.vinc17.net/> 100% accessible validated (X)HTML - Blog: <https://www.vinc17.net/blog/> Work: CR INRIA - computer arithmetic / AriC project (LIP, ENS-Lyon)
